Third year, semester 2, week three

Some scans of what I've been upto over the past few days. Photographed some colour 5x4 transparencies over the light boxes on 120 film, as I wasnt enjoying the whole instillation route the light boxes were going down. One of the quotes is from Camera Lucida by Roland Barthes where he speaks of his mothers death, and the other is from a book by Max Kondola, containing photographs of, and short texts about his fathers death.




Starting to get my dissertation research underway, so I may not be updating this as much as I would like over the next few months. I'm hoping to have the first draft written by the end of summer/ beginning of fourth year. I'm basing it on the parallels between photography and death, which I hope will form a 'personal philosophy' towards photography which I will base my fourth year practice on. Lots of things floating around in my head right now.
